Regex HelpAttached to this post is a file named regex.php... you can upload this script to your web server to test out your regular expressions with a given input. It's pretty self explanatory... the goal is end up with what you want in the [1] => part of the array returned. For debugging purposes, the entire matches array is displayed. See this post of the topic as well.

*Known Issues*This was meant to work with Auto Suggest for choosing who to post as, but I didn't realize that there was a change in the auto suggest script from Beta 4 to RC1, so auto suggest will only work on RC1+. This does not hinder the mod in any way, except that you must properly enter the username / displayname otherwise you will get thrown back to an error.

Doesn't play nice with utf-8 characters, cuts off strings or converts to ?s in the Prefix or Footer fields, possible database collation issue.

Suggestions

Create an additional section in a user's profile to allow them to create and maintain their own feeds that post to boards of their choice or admin selected boards.

It uses Snoopy php Web browser to retrieve feeds... I really didn't look into it too much, but I do believe it supports curl as well.

Nao - I'm not sure... I didn't know SmokyBlue was working on something like this. Looking at topics in mod requests, I see that KahneFan was wanting something similar to this and Smoky was working on it.

You *could* create your own cron if you wanted by writing a simple PHP script that included SSI.php, Sources/ScheduledTasks.php, then ran the scheduled_rss_feeds() function.

It will import anything in the feed based on what you specify in the settings for that feed. Want to import the entire feed, set the number to import to 0. Want to import only feeds with certain keywords, put in the keywords... or any combination of both.
